Connecting a app to a network is a fundamental change, so perhaps change the app to become a "network app". A piece of software connected to a network turns from a product into a service. "Programmers" is to a wide group of people. I am PHP programmer. How will ipv6 impact me? nothing, probably. Having to deal with ip stuff and low level networking stuff only affect a subset of programmers. It may break curl, or some sockets implementation of this and that, then I will download a replacement class that is ipv6 aware. There are two groups of programmers, a) these that have programming only as a job, and b) these that invest time beyond that. The first group is obviously not ready for ipv6 at all, maybe have not even heard about ipv6...and will not know anything about it until is something obligatory. Perhaps this also happens in other groups of people... most people reading mail-list are probably of the B group. -- -- ℱin del ℳensaje.
